Our scientific and medical researchers are among the best and brightest in the world. Our government's funding of them lacks vision, transparency and integrity. As MP for Kooyong, I will fight for science and progress. #Mon4Kooyong #auspol theage.com.au/national/despe…
@Mon4Kooyong @gregory_kj Excellent. Here is my plan for an immediate set of changes to the grant systems to be utilised why they are completely overhauled: medium.com/@DrShaneRRR/ho…
@Mon4Kooyong @gregory_kj Please fix the physical sciences line at the bottom. Also the arts and humanities. Basically double or triple ARC funding. Also full funding of research costs. Please and thank you. 👍
@Mon4Kooyong @Neurobionics Step 1 - triple the ARC budget immediately Step 2 - reform the NHMRC to restore trust in the system Step 3 - have the NHMRC manage the MRFF.
@Mon4Kooyong You have my vote. I agree the whole funding model needs to change. I have been a part of the yellow line there and am constantly amazed at how much time one public employee (the researcher) spends preparing applications / reports / etc to another pulbic employee who assess it.
@Mon4Kooyong Similarly our international aid programme has been leading the world with its focus on people with a disability. Yet this gov’t keeps cutting the quantum. Will you vote for an increase in our aid programme so that more of the world’s poorest can be helped?
@Mon4Kooyong @molregulation Thank you - science and medical research in particular is in desperate need of proper funding - our future is yet to be discovered
@Mon4Kooyong Omg Monique gets better with every tweet! How lucky is Kooyong. Fraudenberg is toast. 😍
@Mon4Kooyong @InghamBrett So hope you’re elected Dr Ryan..we desperately need elected representatives of your caliber..thank you for standing..
@Mon4Kooyong Looking forward to your advocacy for increased research funding as my representative in Canberra #nhmrc #arc #Kooyong #Science #MedicalResearch #Funding
